I work with adults struggling with anxiety, depression, trauma, burnout, life transitions, and the effects of unhealthy relationships, including narcissistic abuse, betrayal, and people-pleasing.

Many of the challenges you face today may be rooted in early experiences, environmental influences, or patterns carried across generations. These experiences can shape how you see yourself and keep your nervous system stuck in cycles that no longer serve you.
The body holds these experiences—especially those outside of conscious awareness—which can disrupt your well-being and relationships.
Through co-regulation, I help your system safely process and release these patterns so you can build a healthier relationship with yourself and others, and begin to move forward with greater clarity and choice.

Marriage Counseling Therapists
How does marriage counseling work?
Marriage counseling works by teaching couples concrete skills to communicate with one another and solve disagreements in healthy ways. A trained mental health professional works with both members of a couple to explore difficulties the couple may be having and helps them develop skills to address these matters. Couples who don’t have any difficulties but want to prepare for marriage may develop skills for the future.
How long does marriage counseling typically last?
Marriage counseling is a short-term form of therapy; the process may last between four and eight sessions. Other forms of relationship guidance from mental health professionals, such as couples therapy, are longer lasting, may focus on the past rather than just the present, and are tailored to the individual couple and their emotions, history, and patterns in the relationship. Couples therapy often lasts for 12 weeks or longer.
Is marriage counseling effective?
Marriage counseling helps many couples develop relationship skills that may not have been acquired or tested in a relationship; partners may be better able to communicate and address conflict following counseling. However, there are many different forms of marriage counseling, and this form of counseling does not have as strong an evidence base as other modalities such as couples therapy.
Is marriage counseling effective if only one partner wants to go?
Yes, marriage counseling can still be effective if one partner convinces the other to engage in the process. Of course, whether counseling is effective depends on the couple’s commitment to work on their relationship; however, the short-term, skills-based nature of marriage counseling makes it a relatively easy “ask” of a partner, and the hesitant individual may see its value once counseling begins.
